I am trying to configure ttysnoop. Whenever i try to login with telnet I get:
Escape character is '^]'.
Debian GNU/Linux potato cybercreep
can't bind server socket (/var/spool/ttysnoop/ttyp0)
Connection closed by foreign host.
the entry in my inetd.conf for telent is
telnet stream tcp nowait telnetd.telnetd /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/sbin/in.telnetd -L /usr/sbin/ttysnoops
my /etc/snooptab is as follows
# /etc/snooptab
#
# these display directly on the specified tty.. no client necessary
#
# tty snoopdev type execpgm
#
ttyp0 /dev/pts5 login /bin/login
ttyp1 /dev/pts1 login /bin/login
ttyp2 /dev/pts2 login /bin/login
ttyp3 /dev/pts3 login /bin/login
ttyp4 /dev/pts4 login /bin/login
#
#
# the 'socket' snoop-device is for use with the ttysnoop client (any tty not
# listed above will match the wildcard)
#
* socket login /bin/login
I am using potato with the latest telnetd and ttysnoop packages. The man page
or other docs I have found say nothing of these messages. I am stumped. Anyone
got any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Ben
